About

Jingmei Zhai is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of robotics, biomedical engineering, and intelligent control systems. Her primary research focuses on developing robotic systems for human interaction, particularly in therapeutic massage applications where human skin characteristics are uncertain and variable. Zhai’s most significant contribution is her 2022 work on an intelligent control system for robot massaging, which introduces a novel impedance control framework incorporating a skin dynamic model to ensure precise position and force control on unknown biological tissues. This paper, with 15 citations, represents a foundational step toward safe and effective human-robot physical interaction. Her earlier work on facial profile surface acquisition (2019) and adaptive control methods for robotic manipulators (2012) laid the groundwork for trajectory planning and precision control, while her 2024 study on friction and deformation behavior of human skin during robotic sliding massage provides critical insights into the mechanical properties of biological tissues. Zhai’s research has direct implications for healthcare robotics, rehabilitation, and assistive technologies, addressing the complex challenge of robots operating safely on deformable, living human surfaces.
